1. A DULTS IS MORE AFFECTED THAN C HILDREN
2. Expanded Dengue Syndrome or Unusual Manifestations of Dengue Infant < 1 year old Commonly found in adults In newly outbreak countries In endemic countries where there are limited laboratory facilities
E XPANDED D ENGUE S YNDROME (EDS) Encephalopathy: confusion, seizure, coma Liver failure Renal failure Cardiac involvement: myocarditis Other organs involvement
C AUSES OF EDS Prolonged shock: Liver, renal, respiratory and other organs (unrecognized at the very beginning) Dengue infections in patients with underlying diseases: DM, HT, Heart diseases, Thalassemia, Liver and renal diseases, etc… Co-infections with other microbial agents: Dengue virus virulence: encephalitis, liver failure
C LINICAL MANIFESTATIONS OF EDS Mostly manifestations of DHF + Complications Underlying diseases Co-infections
C LUES TO DIAGNOSE EDS Detection of plasma leakage (early when the patients present to the healthcare facilities): Rising Hct ≥ 20% Pleural effusion: clinical, CXR – right lateral decubitus, ultrasound Ascites: clinical, ultrasound Hypoalbuminemia: serum albumin ≤ 3.5 gm% in normal nutritional status Other evidence of DHF: Thrombocytopenia especially when platelet count < 50,000 cells/cumm. Clinical bleeding
CXR – COMPARE BETWEEN 2 POSITIONS
E ARLY CLINICAL DIAGNOSIS & M ANAGEMENT Suspected EDS in patients with thrombocytopenia (platelet count ≤ 100,000 cells/cumm.) or clinical bleeding or shock with high fever (probably with encephalopathy) Look for evidence of plasma leakage, if positive more likely to have DHF with complication: 1. DHF with superimposed bacterial infections 2. DHF with liver injury: hepatitis, liver dysfunction/ failure 3. DHF with concealed internal bleeding (mostly GI bleed)

D IFFERENT BETWEEN THE TWO CLASSIFICATIONS Emphasize on plasma leakage* and abnormal hemostasis (platelet count ≤ 100,000 cells/cumm) : Rising Hct ≥ 20% Pleural effusion: PE, CXR (right lateral decubitus, ultrasound) Ascites: PE, ultrasound Hypoalbuminemia (Alb ≤ 3.5 gm%) Emphasize on warning signs* : Abdominal pain or tenderness Persistent vomiting Clinical fluid accumulation Mucosal bleed Lethargy, restlessness Liver > 2 cm Lab.: increase in Hct concurrent with rapid decrease in Platelet count Original WHOSuggested New *Need close monitoring

C OMPARE BETWEEN 2 CLASSIFICATIONS Follow up platelet and frequent Hct (at least q 6 hours) at critical period Can prevent shock and severe cases with complications of organs failure Follow warning signs which are non-specific Shock cannot be prevented. Organs failure as a consequence of prolonged shock are detected late with overt manifestations and poor prognosis Plasma leakage Warning signs
L AHORE E XPERIENCED (S EP.-N OV. 11) Total suspected cases : 600,000+ cases Confirmed 20,000 cases (< 4%) At the peak: 4,000-6,000 patients/day Admission cases/day Death cases per day
M ULTI - COUNTRY STUDY : 18 COUNTRIES V ALIDATION STUDY OF THE NEWLY SUGGESTED CLASSIFICATION Revised not classified Dengue without Warning Signs Dengue With Warning Signs Severe dengue Total Not classify DF ,317 DHF DSS Total326161, ,962 Barniol J et al: BMC Infectious Disease 2011,11: 106
O RIGINAL AND N EWLY SUGGESTED WHO C LASSIFICATION FOR D ENGUE S EVERITY : ( TOTAL 494 PATIENTS ) Narvaez F et al: PlosNTD 2011, 5: e1397. DHF+DSS = 152 patients DW+SD = 467 patients
A DVANTAGES Proven in reducing CFR Can prevent shock so less severe cases and less complications No need for confirmed dengue laboratories (PCR, NS1Ag, IgM/IgG tests): diagnosis DHF/DSS by clinical criteria correct > 90% Easy and friendly use Use only clinical especially warning signs. No need for any laboratory tests to follow up: CBC Increase number of cases report so may be more effective control? Original WHO Suggested new
D ISADVANTAGES Need follow up of laboratory test especially CBC and frequent Hct monitoring Need close monitoring especially during hours of critical period of plasma leakage More workload to healthcare personnel, at least 20 times at OPD and 2 times for IPD More complication of fluid overload (admit and observe early with IV fluid infusion) More severe cases with EDS Need dengue confirm labs. except those with shock, with complication of fluid overload Increase in CFR Original WHO Suggested new
4. IV FLUID MANAGEMENT IN SHOCK CASES 10 ml/kg/hr in children or ml/hr in adult 20 ml/kg in 20 mins. and can repeat another 2 times Original WHO Newly suggested
4. IV FLUID MANAGEMENT IN NON - SHOCK ( COMPENSATED SHOCK ) CASES 1.5 ml/kg/hr in children or M/2 in early and adjust rate accordingly to clinical, vital signs, Hct and urine output 5-7 ml/kg/hr Original WHO Newly suggested
4. O THERS MANAGEMENT Colloidal solution: only plasma expander (hyper-oncotic) - 10% Dextran-40 in NSS No platelet prophylaxis except in adults with underlying HT and Plt < 10,000 cells/cumm. Any colloidal solution including FFP Platelet prophylaxis Original WHO Newly suggested
